I constantly get the same type calls ... someone with an accent claiming I have computer problems and they can fix it. Politely told the no thanks first few times and have since gotten nasty but they keep calling .... different numbers show up on my caller ID screen (Oklahoma and/or New York/New Jersey area codes) but mostly this one. I try to ignore and maybe they wil go away some day.

Have received 3 calls 01/24/2015 and 6 calls today, 01/26/2015, claiming to be Microsoft. Have had calls of this nature before claiming that your computer is putting out errors and request you purchase their service to troubleshoot and repair the problem on our computer for a fee. This constitutes a sales call. Our number is on the "Do Not Call" list and this information will be reported to the Federal Trade Commission.

Claimed there was a problem with a computer in my home that is operating on a windows operating system (broad enough for ya? I am pretty sure 90 percent of households have at least 1), he wanted to guide me through the process to fix it but wouldnt just give me instructios, I had to be in front of the computer. I was suspicious and hung up.

Caller (with heavy Indian accent) says is from microsoft, something about a virus in my computer....???
Told him NOT interested and NOT to call ever again.
Then started getting this call at 5:55 A.M (PST). Almost on a daily basis to the
point that when I go to sleep at night I have to turn off my phones so I don't get a rude awakening in the morning.
FCC, FTC and government (don't call registry) can't do anything to stop it.
This guy from India may even be spoofing the calls.
Oh well, it is what it is.

Received a message on my computer saying MS had detected a security error and to call them. When I did, I told them I did not believe they were who he said they were and hung up. I immediately received a phone call back from "private caller" which I suspect is whoever this scammer is.

The caller did not say anything this time but based on other people comments on a different website about calls from this number it was probably the East Indian sounding man who says he is from Microsoft..... I have received calls from him multiple times before and he says that there is a problem with my computer.

Mike from Microsoft Windows called to tell me about a recent download of a computer virus.... OK so i played along. I hope that everyone knows that Bill Gates company "Microsoft" wont call you. I said to Mike that's great you're offering replacement windows? Man mine are drafty....No, No Mike said.. Windows computer! Go to your computer and tell me whats on the screen! I said.. nothing that's why I'm excited about replacement windows because mine don't have screens.. Do your replacement windows come with them? He swore at me then hung up.. How rude.. (If you cant block them have some fun!)

"John" called me from "Microsoft's IT Department located in Brooklyn, New York." John told me he was calling about the error messages on my computer and that my computer was infected with virus. There was a lot of background noise indicating this may have been from a call center. John asked me what my screen said. I told him, "I looked up your number on 1-800 notes and it says here that you're a scammer." He paused for a minute, said, "Really?!?" and hung up.

Indian accent. Called twice. Most recently today (11/29/2014). Called about my computer sending error messages. Obviously a scammer. Do not give them any information at all. These are bad guys.

After five calls over several days I picked up. My experience was exactly the same as Zombie except no name appeared on caller ID. He told me that my computer had been hacked, when I asked him how he knew that he couldn't give me a intelligent response. He called my cell. Wanted me to go to my computer and follow his instruction on how to fix my computer. Right!

If you call Microsoft (which I did) they say DO NOT LET THEM ON YOUR COMPUTER. Microsoft there looking into this scam that was a while a go I guess they can't stop them.

asked me to go to my computer, I told her I was there. She asked if I knew my computer was sending error messages to Microsoft. I said yes, she said what are you going to do about it? I said I guess wait til you are done hacking me. She got pissed. She said well I will fix it so you don't get hacked. I asked if Bill Gates knew about this. She was furious and said fine call me back when you are hacked and hung up. I of course tried to call back. Number does not exist. These calls come from all different numbers to my home and cell at all different times. I have had enough. I guess if I have to deal with them, I might as well amuse myself.

The FTC "DO NOT CALL" list DOES NOT WORK! I have filed multiple complaints and continue to receive 'illegal' calls of all types, more than ever.
The DO NOT CALL List is a PLACEBO!
